  • Malariology is the subject of studying the issues relating to malaria as a major public health issue. It includes, therefore, the ways in which the disease may be transmitted and the inhibition of those transmission routes, the epidemiological issues of the spread of the disease and differing patterns of transmission, as well as the ways in which malaria-bearing mosquitoes may be suppressed.
